Students are provided with additional academic challenges beyond the high school level
The credit students earn may help them complete their college degree sooner since
college readiness, concurrent enrollment and dual enrollment courses transfer to other
colleges
Taking college classes in high school may ease the transition from high school to
full-time college student
Enrolling in a college course while still in high school enhances a student’s college
admission profile
FerrisNow students may be eligible for a $1,000 FerrisNext Scholarship if they earned at least three
college credits with a "C" or higher through Ferris while they were in high school.
All FerrisNow students have a registration hold applied to their Ferris State University
accounts.
This hold prevents you from registering for Ferris courses. You will be registered
for your courses by the FerrisNow Program staff.
If you are a high school student and have questions about taking Ferris classes, consult
your high school or career and technical education center counselor.
Address Verification Holds
Keeping your phone number and address current is important. Thus, an address verification
hold is applied to all student accounts. This hold is in place so the Uviversity has
up-to-date information for students.
An address verification hold prevents you from requesting an official Ferris State
transcript.
The hold will be lifted after you verify that your address is correct in MyFSU. You
will need to update your address in MyFSU if changes occur to your local and permanent
address.
Follow the instructions below to have the Address Verification hold removed from your
student account.
Students must be held to the same standards of achievement as those expected of students
on Ferris State’s campus. Students’ performances should be assessed using the same
methods as students taking college courses on campus (papers, portfolios, quizzes,
labs, etc.).
Students are officially registered as Ferris students. Courses are recorded on an
official university transcript. Students enrolling in concurrent enrollment courses
for college credit must meet the same course pre-requisites as students on campus
and meet dual enrollment guidelines.
Disclaimers:
Secondary administrators, instructors and students enrolling in concurrent enrollment,
dual enrollment, CARE 102, CARE 201, CARE 203, READ 106, READ 176, UNIV 101, and Woodbridge
Promise classes should be aware that course content, instruction, academic expectations,
and supporting materials have been developed for adult students typically age 18 or
older.
Participation in FerrisNow Programs does not guarantee admission to Ferris following
a student’s high school graduation. Students must meet the Ferris admissions criteria.
